ive got the 94-95 17X9 cobra r replicas in chrome which are knockoffs like Scout mentionedand they were about $300 cheaper than the real oneswhen i can make them look the same withthe cobra rcenter caps...the tires on mine right now are 255/35/17 which wouldnt have been my choice because they are a little too big looking on the wheel i think and they also rub a little bit when the wheel is turned all the way one way, but a buddy of mine sold them to me for $150brand new and iwasnt about to pass up that deal, i would go with 245/45/17's, they look really good on the wheel IMO... ill try to get some pics of mine on here soon so you can see what im talking about

Tard I was talking about the wheels, not your car. They came out in '95 on the Cobra R so I said a year later they were played out....and just a quick pic of my '03s. It wasnice when I was one of the only people in Vegas with these wheels.

I say it depends on car and color. Cobra R's were played out but I think the still look sweet on the right car. I have Stain 03 Cobra wheels from and 03 Cobra. I like the 10th aniv. wheels also. Post some pics fo you car so we can make a better choice.

My car looks like shyte but I guess I will .






And I'm gonna be putting white racing stripes on it. I dunno if you guys think that's gay or not but I photoshopped it and I liked it. I hate the color of my car and I think the stripes will break it up some. So yea, that car, 2 white stripes down the hood, cobra R's, all the trim with overspray and what not will be fixed so it aint so ugly. Eventually I'll be painting the car black.

You can see what I have! I run 245-45-17 all the way around. I bought these from ford and they are only $125 each! Pretty cheap I thought for a factory wheel.
